Then he thought: a husband caring for his wife was something to be expected. What was he being startled for?

After cleaning the wound with disinfectant and covering it gauze and medical tape, Gu Yanhao looked up.

By chance, his eyes met Song Wuyou’s sad eyes as she was watching him.

This gaze hit him directly, like a hand gently stroking his heart.

The deepest part of his heart melted.

Gu Yanhao’s gaze deepened. Looking at her back at her, their four eyes met.

Song Wuyou’s sad eyes looked like they were veiled with a layer of mist, delicate, captivating…

Gu Yanhao’s eyes were unfathomable. Watching this Song Wuyou, it was as if his heartstrings were tugged.

All of a sudden, he had a strong impulse to gather her into his embrace…

“It’s done.” His low, magnetic voice was laced with a gentleness that even he did not notice.

“Thank you.” Song Wuyou was dazed for a moment, before quickly pulling her hand back.

Her brows furrowed slightly. Was it an illusion?

Why did she feel he was being too gentle just now?

And his gaze, totally unlike the usual him?

Song Wuyou looked at the wound on her hand.

The wound was treated well; the gauze and tape were secure and covered the wounded area well.

It felt as if there was a big hand protecting her wound.

Something flashed passed Song Wuyou’s eyes, she was not sure whether it was because Gu Yanhao looked so much like him, or if it was the original host’s residue love… for she felt a little happy that he’d applied medicine for her.

While Gu Yanhao busied himself with packing the small first aid kid, he asked, “Why did you go looking for a job suddenly?”

“I don’t want to act like a beggar every month, asking for allowance money from Song Nan.” This was one of the reasons.

Hearing this answer, Gu Yanhao raised an eyebrow and thought for a moment before he spoke again, “I can afford to support you.”

Song Wuyou froze, and then looked at him with clear astonishment, “Did I hear wrong?”

Gu Yanhao’s cold gaze swept across her face, “You did not hear wrongly.”

“I remember… This is not the way you used to treat me.”

Gu Yanhao’s gaze sharpened, “Do you remember what I said, that everything depends on your performance?”

Song Wuyou was baffled, “What depends on my performance?”

Did he say that?

She cannot recall this on the spot.

Gu Yanhao shot her a cold, stern glare before he took out his wallet.

Song Wuyou watched his actions in confusion.

Seconds later, he slipped a black card from his wallet, passing it to her while saying: “Take it.”

“What for?” Song Wuyou looked at his beautiful hands and that shiny bank card.

It feels like he wanted her to not act like a spoilt brat and to act like a woman fit for the CEO of a large company. The things he did so far were probably to make her change? Since she acts in a refined manner, he treats her well, I think?

I think that he’s the reincarnation of her past lover and her rebirth is to make possible their love that was in past ruined because of his stupidity. But I really hate him: I can’t think how she can forgive him. He’s the cause of the death of the past song wuyou and her child. And he’s very probably the reincarnation of the emperor, the man that has used her and made her die.

She deserves a man that loves her not because of her performance like a promotion. Love is not work.

Your first paragraph made me remember love me again. Have u read it? Its reallygood. There is smut tho.u might not b into that.but its a good story. If u read it Prepare tissues. There might be waterworks.

Even if it turns out he’s been treating her coldly for her own good (in some way – I think this only happens in books!) – that doesn’t build love in your partner. Especially if she’s got memories of Past You doing cruel and caddish things. If it turns out that the man from the other company is treating her suspiciously, she can still make a new start for a while . . .

Whomever Yanhao is right now he has a lot of work to do in this relationship. Wu You needs her independence . This Zhanggong might just be the tea for the fever, whether she stays with Yanhao or not.And even so his friend is tempted a little bit as well. I say it is time to stir the pot.

The money is just a lure to get that fish back on the line. Meanwhile, if she does become financially independent (possible in modern setting) she could become actually independent. Then she’d be free[ish] to make up her mind about whether to spend more time on or with any person she encounters – an option that did not exist, really, in her previous life. I like the reincarnation possibility, but regardless of the reason this Gu Yanhao treated the former occupant of the body, he has much to make up for. With so many possible companions, and a loyal maidservant to take care of her needs, all the options are available to Wuyou now.
